[RFC V2] virtio: Add platform specific DMA API translation for virito devices

SEV guys report that they just set the iommu flag and then it all works.
I guess if there's translation we can think of this as a kind of iommu.
Maybe we should rename PLATFORM_IOMMU to PLARTFORM_TRANSLATION?
And apparently some people complain that just setting that flag makes
qemu check translation on each access with an unacceptable performance
overhead. Forcing same behaviour for everyone on general principles
even without the flag is unlikely to make them happy.

VIRTIO_F_BEHAVES_LIKE_A_REAL_PCI_DEVICE_DONT_TRY_TO_OUTSMART_ME
as said it's not just translations, it is cache coherence as well.

I don't see a flexibility argument. I just don't think new platforms
should use workarounds that we put in place for old ones.
